Endurathon Lemon & Lime 650g £22.94

Created by EAS scientists who are passionate about the pursuit of peak performance, Endurathon will help take your endurance performance to the next level. Heres how: Endurathon is a product created with the latest research on endurance nutrition by providing a revolutionary Multi-Stage Carbohydrate Blend including Maltodextrin, Trehalose, Ribose, Fructose, Glucose and Sucrose combined with whey protein and branch chain amino acids. Research shows that this combination of ingredients drives more energy into working muscles, providing athletes with a substantial increase in endurance over carbohydrate drinks or water alone. Most endurance athletes should be aware the primary cause of fatigue is the depletion of muscle and liver glycogen (carbohydrate) and that ingesting carbohydrates during exercise will delay the onset of this fatigue. However many athletes remain unaware that a product such as Endurathon with Carbohydrates and Protein can extend the time to fatigue dramatically when compared to a carbohydrate only drink or water alone. Heres why. Consuming carbohydrates during exercise delays the onset of fatigue by fuelling your muscles via blood glucose and therefore sparing muscle and liver glycogen (carbohydrate stored in your muscles and liver). The amount of carbohydrate (energy) that is delivered to the working muscles is determined by the amount of insulin released by the Pancreas in response to the rise in your blood sugar caused by the ingested carbs. Ingested Protein also causes insulin to be released, and, with the right proportion of carbs and protein the gastric emptying speed (how fast nutrients leave the stomach) is not slowed and there is a larger insulin response resulting in more carbohydrate being driven into the working muscles during exercise. Replenishing fluids lost through dehydration during exercise is absolutely crucial. When your body is depleted of fluid through sweating your blood volume drops, heart rate goes up and your performance drops or comes to a complete standstill, therefore Endurathon also contains a unique Electrolyte blend, to provide rapid rehydration. Also included is an effective blend of antioxidants Vitamin C & E to neutralise muscle damaging free radicals. Another cause of fatigue is only partially understood and seems to be the accumulation of neurotransmitters, namely serotonin, that are associated with negative mood states such as feeling tired or loss of motivation, in particular parts of the brain during endurance type exercise. This is because as muscle glycogen is depleted muscle protein is broken down and branch-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are increasingly used as fuel. At the same time there is a corresponding increase in the concentration of Tryptophan in the blood. Tryptophan is capable of crossing the brain barrier where it is converted to serotonin leading to feelings of tiredness and a desire to cease physical activity. To counter these negative effects Endurathon includes BCAAs in the optimum ratio of 2:1:1 (Leucine:Isoleucine:Valine) By ingesting BCAAs it may help prevent your body from breaking down muscle and therefore the level of Tryptophan is reduced enabling athletes to exercise or compete longer. An additional benefit of Endurathon is that it prevents muscle protein being used as a fuel during exercise. During exercise, the muscle building and repair process is suspended and the amino acids that would normally used for this process are diverted and used as fuel. Also, working muscle is broken down to produce amino acids that can also be used as fuel. To prevent this happening the protein in Endurathon provides more amino acids available for fuel and saves your muscle protein from breaking down. Prolonged training and competitions can also result in an increased level of the stress hormone Cortisol which your body produces to break down muscle protein so it can be used as fuel. However, by consuming Endurathon, blood insulin levels are maintained at a high level and Cortisol remains low preventing your muscle protein being broken down and used as fuel.
